Hi everyone. I am getting a bottle lamb tomorrow. I have been looing for one for awhile now. Now that the day is here I'm a little nervous. I am planning to keep her in a giant dog crate in the house and put her out with my weaned lambs that I have coming to me at the end of May. I'm going to get milk replacer and bottles and nipple today. I'm going to get her a little sweater too. I plan to put straw down for bedding. Is this ok? She's 4 days old, a Cheviot. Wish me luck. I'll be counting on you all for support and advice as I raise her. Also does she need a water bucket? Should I get any kind of hay or lamb feed (concentrates) for her yet? Thanks.
